No bigger fad swept across postwar radio than that of the hard-boiled private detective - and nobody had more fun with their wink-and-nudge take on the genre than the producers, writers, and cast of The Adventures of Sam Spade. Dashiell Hammett's legendary private eye had a sardonic sense of humor, which wavy-haired, rugged-voiced Howard Duff played to perfection.

If You Love Johnny Dollar Then Welcome To Harry Nile and Murphy
Jim and Pat French may be gone but the Harry Nile series will live on. Waiting for the next collection which is out for sale in CD so it should have already appeared here. This is a great series that could have been on the air with all the classic private eyes of the past.

Love Harry Nile!
Even though these were recorded in the 70s, Jim French did a wonderful job of re-creating the flavor of the old time radio of the 30s and 40s! The last episode in this collection, revolving around the December 7, 1941 attack on Pearl Harbor, really evokes a powerful emotional response; great series. I’d get ALL of the episodes if I could!

Gets better as it goes along
Most of the episodes seem to occur in Los Angeles rather than Seattle There is no partner Murphy in these programs. I think she must have come along later in the series. Phil Harper is terrific and the supporting cast is professional. As for the writing, the stories are entertaining but lack the "edge" of Dashiell Hammett. The technical quality is excellent. This series takes Harry Nile right up to Pearl Harbor and the beginning of World War II. The chronology of the stories jumps around. A story in "December 1941" precedes one set in "late winter of 1941" (which would be the beginning of the year). Fortunately, each story is self-contained with a few continuing characters.
